KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs running back Peyton Hillis was back at practice Wednesday and could play this weekend against Oakland for the first time since Week 3. Hillis sprained his right ankle in the Chiefs’ victory at New Orleans on Sept. 23. He’s was able to take advantage of their bye last week to get back on the practice field. Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said he wasn’t sure whether Hillis will play against the Raiders until he saw him practice in pads, but Hillis said he believes he’ll be ready to go. Hillis signed a one-year deal this season to provide a bruising complement to Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles, who leads the NFL with 98.5 yards rushing per game.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs are turning away from a former seventh-round draft pick whose career is spiraling toward ignominy, and putting the offense in the hands of a former first-round draft pick whose own career thus far has been a disappointment. Matt Cassel is out. Brady Quinn is in.
Nobody is quite sure whether the Chiefs will be any better off when they host the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, but what’s clear is that the quarterback situation in Kansas City is dire. It’s been that way for years, too.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Iowa quarterback James Vandenberg has had one of the most surprisingly miserable senior seasons anyone could imagine. It’s not going to cost him his job. Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz reiterated on Tuesday that Vandenberg is his starter for Saturday’s game at Northwestern (6-2, 2-2 Big Ten).
Many wondered if Iowa (4-3, 2-1) might go in another direction after Vandenberg and the Hawkeyes were dismantled by Penn State 38-14. But Ferentz was adamant that Vandenberg will be his quarterback until his eligibility is up. Ferentz says everyone in the program believes in Vandenberg.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Kyle Lohse got to bed at 5:30 a.m. after the St. Louis Cardinals’ flight from a most unpleasant end to the NL championship series against the San Francisco Giants. Fatigue only added to the aftershock of a spectacular nosedive as players cleaned out their lockers Tuesday. It might be the final time for Lohse, who confessed to being a bit “delirious” from lack of sleep while discussing his future.
Coming off his best season, the 16-game winner heads into free agency for the second time. There have been no contract conversations with the Cardinals, who might not be able to fit him into the budget. Nearly everyone else will return next year for another try. They will need a while to purge the awful taste of blowing a 3-1 series lead to the Giants and missing a chance to defend their World Series title.
